Got the Travel Bug? A Review of Common Infections, Infestations, Bites, and Stings Among Returning Travelers.
American Journal of Clinical Dermatology 2016 October

Primary care physicians and dermatologists should be familiar with these illnesses and a general approach to their evaluation and management.
